Well..... To be fair, they probably had no idea it was such a painful question. There are 6.5 years between my 2 sons, and my reasons are totally different from yours. If someone asked me, I would not hesitate to reply. How are they to know which one of us has the more painful story?

Some people feel like if you give a baby gift prior to the baby's birth it's bad luck - so I always wait.

Wait until the baby shower ... then you know it will be safe to give.

Just as an FYI, my friend's granddaughter was born with a p___s! The doctor said he must have been really shy! LOL
Never showed up on the ultrasound ... was a total surprise to everyone!

The expectant couple lives in another town several hours drive away - and are in their 30's. I don't think I'll be going to a shower. I usually get invited to things that an aunt would be so ... maybe, but I was planning on giving it to them when they come visit between now and the end of May. But ... I can send it with my friend after the baby arrives if I have to.
